Putting in video game form doesn't really work for me... By saying "You win the game" from within a game, you somehow talk less about The Game, but about the game that you are saying that in. Does that make any sense? ^^'
Good intention I guess, but I think it really works better as a comic (or just orally).

Neat idea and interpreted the comic well. Anyway one thing I do want to mention is I'm doing a review of design on the games in this jam so here's a shameless plug to my channel if you want to be notified of the vid when released: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7Vj46GGL9VMUvd4YTMtjXg

I both love and hate this game.  Love because I think the idea is great and is executed just fine, but I also hate it for its pointlessness, and the fact that I'm not 100% sure it captures the heart of the xkcd comic it's based on.  

I personally read the comic as a release, that after struggling to win the game (of life?) for so long, you have won.  You already won--you are free, you have been free.  Struggle no more.

But I can also see how another person, like yourself, can read the comic and see it as winning the game before the game even starts, and using that idea to fuel "xkcd: The Game".  And that's fine--both our readings are valid.  

The "winning" cards are nice; I like that there are different ones that seem to be random (though there aren't many, I think there are 5 in all?), and the lines they say seem to be in the spirit of xkcd.

(Though I have mixed feelings about you calling it "xkcd: The Game".)

Overall, this is a simple "game".  Thanks for making it.
